If I had to guess at the identity of the general, I'd lean toward Merrill McPeak.

"If I had to guess at the identity of the general, I'd lean toward Merrill McPeak."

I know a couple of former AF generals (MGs) and I can tell you they have a very low regard for McPeak, as do several others who knew him. If he was around the AD story, I'd have to agree.

I would be willing to go "all in" that you're right....he's a total a-hole.

Why should the ID of this General remain a secret?

He must know who it is? The General knows knows who he's talking about so why can't we know? May there is a BS factor going on here.

Talked with a former Centcom guy the other day. He said they knew nothing of the Able Danger program.

But I wouldn't think they would. It seems to me that their job is to deal with military operations after the fact, not the preventive intelligence which protects us quietly day to day.

Good morning.
"...Merrill McPeak."

I had forgotten about him. What a swine. Whoever the general is, you may be sure he is a clintonista.
